MFT Teaser Day 1 - à La Mode

Hi everyone and welcome to day 1 of 2 of MFT Teasers for the new à La Modes! In the next 2 days, the MFT design team will be featuring this month's 2 new à La Mode stamp sets: I Need Some Facetime and I Treasure Our Friendship. These sets will be available for purchase on the MFT Boutique on May 17th along with this month's MFT VIP kit. So mark your calendars! Today, we are featuring I Need Some Facetime.

In the past, we've released our à la modes images in cling rubber, however, this month, we're releasing both of our à la modes in clear photopolymer, just like the rest of our stamps. This means that we can bring them to you a slightly lower price point than usual - $9.00 each! How fabulous is that?! Since our clear stamps are made in the USA, they are of the highest quality, so you'll have the same great image quality that you're accustomed to with any of our other clear stamps! Sweet deal right?

Now onto my project...

I used Cosmo Cricket's Material Girl papers on this A2 card and layered the pieces onto MFT's Berrilicious cardstock. I colored up the à la mode girl with my Copic markers, fussy cut her and mounted her inside a Tattered Angels frame. The sentiment is from the stamp set and I created a Rolled Daisy in MFT felt to anchor the sentiment down. I cut out a Simply Scallops Medium die cut in kraft card stock and Berrlicious cardstock and layered them on top of each other. I accented the card with a few miniature rosettes from Iamroses.

Inside the card, I layered a sentiment from the I Need Some Facetime à la Mode stamp set onto the Worn Greetings Die-namics.

Hi, my name is Arlene. I am an avid crafter and enjoy dabbling in the arts. I have a passion for creating mini albums, cards, scrapbook layouts, altered art and mixed media pieces.
